| This is my favorite sweet corn variety. It is a super-dwarf sized stalk (4-5 feet) which can help with planting density and yield per sq. ft. It is also the earliest sweet corn variety I have ever grown, coming in well before other early varieties trialed against. This meant I was harvesting ears before the corn earworm had a chance to hatch and begin feeding (I lost most other varieties to earworm damage). Also showed resistance to corn smut, when others succumbed. The yield I gave 4-stars due to the smaller ears than expected, but we did have a very dry July here right at the point of formation, so that may have had something to do with it. Will plant again! |

| I planted this corn 2 seasons in a row. Excellent taste. Easy to grow. Small kernels. Produced 1 ear per stalk (the 2nd ear did not develop). Great for freezing. |

| Very early corn up here on the Canadian border. Excellent flavor and sweetness. Very small plant that can be closely spaced. |
